Ciência e arte na leitura literária de Chapeuzinho Vermelho e o Lobo-guará.

Abstract

This article aims to discuss the

interface between science and art in the

reading of the children‟s book Chapeuzinho

Vermelho e o Lobo-Guará (Machado,

2009). To this end, it was guided by the

following specific objectives: to present

conditions for literary reading of

Chapeuzinho Vermelho e o Lobo-Guará

(Machado, 2009) in a school context; to

discuss children‟s understanding and

appreciation of oral literary reading (Souza,

2016) of the aforementioned book; and to

address the importance of aspects inherent

to literary language for the comprehension

and appreciation of children‟s literary texts

by 5th-grade students. The research

methodology was documentary, with data

analysis and interpretation based on

Ginzburg‟s (1989) perspective. The results

indicated, according to the frameworks of

Bakhtin (2004; 2011), Fiorin (2017), and

Geraldi (2002), that aspects related to

literary language resonated in children‟s

productions and proved important for their

comprehension and appreciation of the

narrative (Machado, 2009).
